Sorry to hear about your truck. Here in British Columbia we have government insurance. If the driver is caught or even if you have any amount of reasonable evidence, a penalty can be asssigned to the errant dirver's insurance or driver's licence - subject ot a vehicle inspection. (The insurance company also controls the driver's and vehicle's licencing system.) If he does not report, he cannot re-licence his vehicle. In my case, my '46 PU was run into by a drunk (in Oct) but the accident was witnessed by two undercover police officers. They took the driver to jail. Also, the insurance company considers that the drunk driver has forfeited his insurnce by driving drunk and will be liable for all damages. In other words the driver who hit me will not be able to renew his licence until he owns up for the damage. Unfortunatley for his parents, he was driving their car. They may also have some liability but more importalty they have lost their vehicle. I know it sounds a bit heavy handed but it easier than pusuring a claim within the legal system. I hope your vehicle is fixed soon.
Regards
Eric
